What is the molecule that gets picked up at the lungs and dropped off at body cells?
The molecule that gets picked up at the lungs and dropped off at body cells is oxygen. Oxygen is transported by red blood cells in the bloodstream, binding to hemoglobin for delivery to various tissues and cells in the body.
Does oxygen go into animal cells?
Yes, oxygen picked up in the lungs by the red blood cells is delivered to the individual cells of the body, where it is absorbed into the cytoplasm and taken to the mitochondria to be used in aerobic cellular respiration reactions.
What organ pink-up oxygen in thd blood stream?
I think you mean picked up. It is the lungs.
How does carbon monoxide effect your body?
when carbon monoxide enters the body, it alters the hemoglobins in your red blood cells. hemoglobins are what carry oxygen on your red blood cells throughout the body, and when carbon monoxide comes, it allows fewer oxygen molecules to be absorped into the red blood cells.
What is the route that oxygen takes to get to the red blood cells?
If by that you mean where they get their own oxygen, then from nowhere because red blood cells do not need oxygen, they perform all reactions anaerobically.If you mean where they get it to give off for the rest of your body, then its from the lungs.
What is picked up at the lungs by the blood vessel's?
Oxygen is picked up by the blood when it is at the lungs.
What is the molecule that gets picked up at the lungs and dropped off at body cells?

Why does pulse gets faster?
Your body needs oxygen, which is picked up by the blood from the air in your lungs and then pumped around your body by the heart. If you need more oxygen (by working harder) then your heart has to pump faster.
Where in your lungs does the oxygen get picked up by your blood?
alveoli
Where does the blood collects after passing the gills of a fish?
It circulates the body distributing the oxygen picked up in the gills and collecting carbon di-oxide to exchange in the gills for more oxygen.
Why does the blood goes to the lungs?
Blood flows through the walls of the lungs to release carbon dioxide and to absorb oxygen for distribution throughout the body.
How does oxygen get to all of the body cells?
Each haemoglobin molecule in the blood takes on 4 oxygen molecules in the lungs; that freshly-oxygenated blood returns to the heart for distribution around the body so the oxygen can be transferred to tissue cells needing it.
Does oxygen go into animal cells?
Yes, oxygen picked up in the lungs by the red blood cells is delivered to the individual cells of the body, where it is absorbed into the cytoplasm and taken to the mitochondria to be used in aerobic cellular respiration reactions.
Where are nutrients picked up from in the body?
The small intestine.
Why does your breathing rate increase when you get active?
Breathing faster will only drag more oxygen into the lungs, but to get more oxygen to the muscles it has to be picked up and carried into the body by the blood. So the heart has to pump more too, tho move the oxygen from the lungs to the muscles.
Why the blood needs to be pumped through the lung and all parts of the body?
The blood is pumped through your lungs and other parts of your body to carry oxygen and other necessary nutrients throughout your body. It also carries the wastes like carbon dioxide out of your body. It is necessary for the blood to pass through your lungs so that your blood can pick up the oxygen and to get rid of the carbon dioxide that it picked up in the body.
What organ pink-up oxygen in thd blood stream?
I think you mean picked up. It is the lungs.
